Massive news for the Reds as Mikel Arteta admit William Saliba could miss crucial matches for the Gunners yet again
William Saliba’s potential participation in the 2024 Olympics in Paris will need Arsenal to make a crucial choice, as it may impact his availability for the start of the 2024–2025 Premier League season.
Les Bleus will be coached by France U21 boss Thierry Henry in the forthcoming competition. His job is to choose a team that consists of eighteen players plus four reserves, three of whom cannot be older than 23.
Saliba may be able to gain a spot as a U23 player, even though world champions Kylian Mbappe, Antoine Griezmann, and Olivier Giroud are all excellent contenders for the team.
The French football federation’s president, Philippe Diallo, urged Henry to assemble the best team he could, highlighting their desire to win the competition. However, as FIFA does not recognize the Olympics, Arsenal is free to refuse to release William Saliba. Even so, the allure of winning a gold medal at home might surpass the players who were chosen.
